It sounds like a 'Braxton Hicks' contraction to me and nothing to
worry about. If the tightening become painful and continue seek advice from
your midwife.
Hiya ive realised what it is now and i feel really silly, my belly wasnt going tight it was jst feeling really firm in a certain area, which turns out its jst the baby pressing its back against my stomach! Figured it out when it happened again an then it was followed by a series of really strong kicks and digs! thanks for everyones help x x x

hiya i get these alot it could just be braxton hicks where your body is gettin ready for birth. as long as these tightenings ar not painful then its nothing to worry about its only when they get regular and 3 - 4 mins apart that you should seek medical help, trust me you will know when its the real thing!
i went into prem labour at 30 weeks with contractions so i kinda know what to expect now, the hospital managed to stop my labour with a course of pills, which i was very lucky and lola has 5 weeks left so she has listened to me telling her to stay in there that lil while longer lol.
ive been getting these braxton hicks since i was 22 weeks, braxton hicks are irregular and i found if i swayed it helped relieve them, but with the real contractions i got really flushed and they were coming on thick n fast getting stronger and regular.i hope this has helped hun. how far gone are you now? x :)
Thanks! i read an article on here im thinkin now it might of been the babies head pressing against my stomach, god knos lol x x x
